Enhanced desktop shell for DSH: auto-starts the local backend on launch (no browser tab), asks before closing the backend on quit, and starts the backend in parallel with Electron for faster cold start. Fork of dsh-clean-desktop-shell.

An enhanced fork of dsh-clean-desktop-shell: on top of "wrap your web profile in a native window", it fills in the backend lifecycle management a desktop app should have.

Enhancements over upstream

  1. Auto-start the backend on launch — no more clicking "start backend" manually; the local dsh web backend is started automatically.
  2. No browser window — the backend is started with --no-open, so only the native window appears, never a browser tab.
  3. Ask before closing the backend on quit — the tray "quit" shows "close backend and quit / quit only / cancel".
  4. Backend starts in parallel with Electron — the backend is kicked off during Electron init, so cold start is faster.

Install

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-clean-desktop-shell-pro

Then restart dsh web. It reuses your existing web profile and the Electron runtime ($DSH_HOME/desktop-shell-runtime).

If you already have the upstream dsh-clean-desktop-shell installed, remove it first to avoid two desktop shells starting at once:

dsh plugin --profile web remove dsh-clean-desktop-shell

Desktop shortcut

After the first launch, use the tray right-click menu → "create desktop shortcut", or the first-run prompt.
